Underground Accrington, AkA My Shop

Underground Accrington, AkA My Shop - Visited By Ojay & Andyj23UK.

Discovered by Little Mike back in 2008, and aptly named due to the washed up Costcutter signage, which is sadly no more...

After a sharp exit from a feisty CSO it was time for much needed sanity IN YOUR CULVERTS :D

Like Andy said, a small jaunt up Hyndburn water, we wandered into the Outfall and continued upstream firstly under the Leeds Liverpool canal and Express Gifts - (A huge mail order warehouse), where Andy informs me the goods yard once collapsed and accidently in your culverts.

We found no evidence of this today, despite our best efforts "progress was halted after just 150M by an impassable waterfall" :eek:
